Here is your chance to own your own business!

You've been waiting for a sign right?? You want to open your own business but you don't know what to do.. consult? design?  retail? So... you've been waiting... waiting for the perfect opportunity.  HERE IT IS.

I need to move on from Ribbon Ring.  I am a full-time elementary teacher, part-time college instructor and full-time mom.  I can no longer manage my Ribbon Ring business.  I invented the product about 8 years ago and have had great success with it.  It is THE BEST RIBBON STORAGE PRODUCT ON THE MARKET.  Just sayin'.   I just do not have the time or energy to go to conventions/trade shows, retail fairs, etc. anymore.

This is where you come in!  You can take Ribbon Ring in any direction you want!  Want to travel around the world exhibiting at craft shows?  You can. Maybe just once a month in the US? Go for it. Just CHA twice a year? Your choice.  No shows, just keep it online? Go ahead!  Want to distribute Ribbon Ring to chain stores?  It is up to you.  The product is good- do what you want with it.

I want to make this transaction as simple as possible. 

For $???? , here is what you will get:

A fabulous website, www.ribbonring.com with shopping cart.
1200 Jumbo Ribbon Ring packages
200 Ribbon Ring Starter Sets
Manufacturer contacts/details

Trade show booth materials: Professionally made Ribbon Ring signage, professionally made Ribbon Ring podium,  3 large cargo shipping containers.

I will provide consulting assistance for 1 year at no charge. I will attend one event (trade show, CHA, Creating Keepsakes, etc.) July - August 2015, upon request, if my expenses are paid.

To be clear,  I am going to shut down my Ribbon Ring business  You can buy all the materials from me and start your own Ribbon Ring business.  

This is a great opportunity at an amazing price. It is the "sign" you have been waiting for.  Jump on this before someone else does.

I have a set, firm price in mind for Ribbon Ring.  If you are serious, please email me at Melissa@ribbonring.com.  I would like to sell this business before school starts in September.  (That way you can start getting ready for CHA's 2015 MEGA SHOW in January!!!)

Shipping changes at Ribbon Ring

Effective immediately, I will no longer ship internationally.  Postage has gone through the roof.  Most of my international orders now cost me more to ship than the product itself.  So, I am going to limit orders to US addresses only.  I'm sorry!

A few product changes

I have had a few serious inquiries from ladies wanting to purchase Ribbon Ring, but I just can't let it go!  Maybe the perfect deal will come along. I'll wait for it. 

Just a little change this week to let you know about.  I am no longer going to sell 3" rings.  They are readily available at office supply stores and they are hard for me to inventory, so the 90 standard tags will now be shipped as three Starter Set packages which means you automatically get three 2" rings (which is great because you an sort your ribbon by color). 

If you have any questions, comment here or send me an email through the website, www.ribbonring.com. 

Get that ribbon organized.

Happy holidays and an interesting Ribbon Ring twist.....

Happy holidays to you!  I have been very busy teaching elementary school and loving every minute of it!

But that means I have less time to devote to Ribbon Ring.  Look how many blog posts I made in 2013.  Epic fail.

So...... I have been playing with the idea of selling my Ribbon Ring business. I see your eyebrow raised and there is a twinkle in your eye... are you interested?   If you are, please email me: Melissa@ribbonring.com

It would be so hard to let it go... I dreamed this product up in my living room 8 years ago and  now it is sold WORLDWIDE with ZERO advertising.  Who knows what YOU could achieve?!?!

Anyone have some spare time???

Can I tell you how much I LOVE FALL!  I hope you are easing back into school... the kids are gone, the house is quiet and you can start scrapbooking again!   I am a teacher, so I am enjoying spending my days with your kiddos!  Then, I get home, take care of my own kiddos and try to get my own scrapbooking projects done. Plus housework.  Plus gardening. Ha.  Good luck with that, right?

So scrapbooking friends... are you on LinkedIn?  If you are and would like to connect with me, just look me up (Melissa Bickle). I have met many of you at shows and you may have seen my ribbon art.  I have a book, "A Notion To Celebrate" published by Leisure Arts and would like to put together some new projects but I am having a hard time finding enough hours in the day.  (sigh-  See above.)

Oh and I have a new puppy.

Please send me any free time you have.

Back to school... back to scrapbooking!

I hope you are having a WONDERFUL summer and taking lots of photographs that you will scrapbook this fall.  As we think about back to school shopping for our kiddos, I have been known to do a little "back to scrapbooking" shopping for myself.  In order to encourage this, I will offer you a $1 off coupon through the month of August on any Ribbon Ring order.  You know you should get that ribbon organized! Coupon code is: SUMMER13

Enjoy!
